    Thanks for posting that. I'm going to compare these course with the ones I've already completed. I have 8 left over from the ones TESC accepted and if there are a few more I can take I'll do that. Thanks!

    Cool, glad you might find them useful. Bellevue accepted most of the FEMA courses I've taken, but not all. Bellevue did not accept the following courses which I may end up transcripting at Frederick Community College:

    00100 (100 and 200 combine for 1 credit)
    00200

    00546 (546 and 547 combine for 1 credit)
    00547

    00253
    00302
    00331
    00340
    00362

    00650

    Out of curiosity, how did they accept them? All as general electives?

    Free electives. To be clear, some of the FEMA courses I transferred in were part of an associates degree I earned at TESC. Others were counted as free electives in direct transfer from FEMA. The list I posted was given to me by Bellevue to show which courses they will accept in direct transfer from FEMA. I imagine you'd be limited by the amount of free electives you have in your chosen degree, 22 in most cases if you start at Bellevue with only an associates degree, more if you start from scratch.

    Has anyone gotten FEMA credits lately from Bellevue? I'm just wondering if one can still get credit for FEMA classes at Belleveue?

    I did it about 9 months ago and a Bellevue classmate did it just prior to her degree completion about 3 months ago.
